We open on this Sunday which often falls on a regular open day. SPAB encourages mills that are not usually open to the public to open over this weekend and mills that charge for entry to offer free admittance. We do not offer free admittance - mostly due to this normally falling on one of our regular open days - so we do not participate in SPAB's advertising for the event.

[http://www.wadarc.org.uk/ Worthing & District Amateur Radio Club (WaDARC)] are invited to the mill and they operate a special call-sign, '''[http://www.wadarc.org.uk/special-event-stations GB0HSM]''', that is only used at the windmill on this day. They reach out to mills around the world and keep track of contacts on a board in the roundhouse. Each participating mill will be hosting their own local amateur radio club who will be broadcasting with their own mill-specific call-signs. The photographs shows mills, and their call-signs, that were contacted in 2014.

Annual Mill Events and Themed Open Days

This page lists annual mill events from the point of view of Mill Trust Directors or volunteers responsible for organising or assisting in running them.

Other Events

The aim of this section is to document other events that have been run at the mill so that if, in the future, we have a volunteer willing to run them again, the information is collected in one place. There is no obligation on a future willing volunteer to follow the exact plan of historic events, but the information may be of use.
